I had a new Superhub installed on Wednesday and I am using it as a modem / wi fi router.
Initially for 24 hrs speeds fluctuated at 2 Mbps to 28 Mbps on a 30 Mb rate to which I am supposed to get.
On my Netbook the signal was steady at 54 Mbps but on my HP desktop the signal fluctuated as above.
When i disabled the wi fi the status reading in the wired local network showed 1Gbps.
Does this mean that the wired isgiving me a far faster speed than the wi-fi.
By the way the wi-fi speed has now become steady on the desktop , has the superhub had some firmware updates since starting up ?
Do these Status speeds mean that the cards in the computer are capable of handling the speeds , i.e. 1 Gbps or just 54 Mbps
Help please , total novice but trying to learn.
